This warmer works very well in the "warming" department, but before purchasing, be aware of the following:

the cord is very short, so you will probably need an extension cord.

the on/off switch is located half way down the cord, so you have to reach for it a bit... It would be much better if the on/off switch was on the warmer unit itself.

the bottom "feet" are made of hard plastic, so it "slides" on hard surfaces and can scratch your furniture. It would be much better if it had rubber feet.

Other than that, it's a nice product.

I read a ton of reviews for all the different cup warmers. None of them seemed to work. This one does. The drinks stay hot, but not as hot as when they were first brewed, of course. At least they aren't lukewarm. The cup gets hot too so be careful. I even use it for my 32 oz Bodum press tea pot. I set the pot right on the burner and my tea stays warm enough to enjoy for hours not scalding, but between warm and hot.

You have to start with hot liquid. It will not heat cold or lukewarm drinks. The bottom of the cup has to fit flat on the hot plate. Without full contact, you will lose the heat. A super thick cup won't keep the liquid as hot as a thinner one. I tried my 3/8" thick glass latte cup, but it stayed only lukewarm. My regular cermaic and glass coffee and tea mugs work perfectly. The wider the bottom of the cup, the better. A pedastle cup has less surface contact so less heat is transferred to the cup.

There's an on and off roller switch on the cord itself. It seems some other models don't offer that feature. I also like the chunky "marble texture" look of this one. The seller (not amazon) delivered very fast too (less than a week). I'm very satisfied.

I previously had revewied this product. It had arrived late and a bit defective but it worked great. Low and behold, and much to my suprise, the company had read my review and within days, sent a replacement with their apologies. This one was perfect and I use it all day long. Keeps my coffee hot, hot, hot. I am bowled over by a company who cares so much that they read their own customers' reviews and act upon any negatives. They get a TEN in my book. Great cup warmer. I recommend highly!

Honest reviews on Norpro 5569 Decorative Cup Warmer

I could not be happier with this coffee warmer. my old one at 9 watts (stated on bottom of product) had coffee getting cold after one hour. this 24 watt warmer keeps coffee hot but not scolding, and for at least 4+ hours, which is as long as I've used it so far. Plus I love the on/off switch on the plug opposed to on the stand. When on the stand, a little spilt coffee will highly affect the on/off button operation, not on the plug though! The base is wide too, I can fit my wide 18 oz mug on the warmer with room to spare. I love and highly recommend this product for anyone wanting to keep a beverage hot for hours and hours.

The product is advertised with a 3.75" diameter heated surface. That is why I ordered it, since I do have other cup warmers, but I have some mugs with wide bases that do not fit on them. To my disappointment, it is not as advertised the warming surface is 3.5" across the entire black (heated) part, and only 3.25" across the flat USABLE part of the heated surface. I would have returned it, but it was so cheap the cost of returning it would be about 1/2 the cost of the refund. So it is in the closet as a replacement for when one of my other mug warmers wears out and I'm very disappointed.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This is conveniently portable, you can carry it from one room to another, even if you have been using it for sometime. The heat is coming from the bottom and doesn't heats up the handles that are on the top. It uses two 40W E12 lamps that can be replaced from the back.

Pros:

wonderful magical fireplace display. It looks like an authentic fire unless you are very close to it.

no assembly required

Cons:

Not extremely loud but still makes noise even no heater is on.

No authentic fire log crackling noise. Fireplace DVDs give you better experience on audio.

It is blowing air on the bottom but not enough to spread the head across the room

Energy consumption:

I used a Kill-a-Watt to measure how much energy it consumes. This electronic fireplace has three rocker switches. The first one is for light display only. The other two switches is to turn on the heater. There are two rotating knobs. The one on the left is for the light display intensity. The one on the right is a dumb knob for the heater temperature. It is actually just a two step switch. It doesn't adjust gradually. Nothing happens until you turn the knob past halfway before the light on the second heater switch turns on. After passing halfway, the heat will not intensify more even if you turn the knob all the way to the highest setting.

Light only, dimmest setting = 53W

Light only, brightest setting = 78W

Light + 1 heater switch = 731W

Light + 2 heater switches = 1,311W

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have not had an electric fireplace before. But, I was certainly surprised at the heating uniformity this one produced. I was suspicious that it would heat in one spot, like those small space heaters.

I placed this in the lowest level of my home. I have a Tri-level and the basement level is the coldest. Although it is not too cold yet, this electric Fireplace threw out some instant heat. The heat soon radiated into the room, and it kept the heat in the room uniform.

I liked the look of the flames and the wood, as it is quite realistic. The flames are high, and consistently producing nice images of fire.

My only concern is that the flames are placed in the back, and I would like the flames to billow out of the "logs" also. So, the logs are lit, and the flames are in the back.

The unit, itself, does not get hot, and there is an auto safety feature. You can operate this with or without the heat. PLUS, you can operate one heating element or both for greater warmth.

I placed the Fireplace in the Living Room, and I got a very nice uniform heat. I will, of course, raise the fireplace for more of a level to eye view and enjoyment.

This one is smaller than my other unit Frigidaire CMSF-10310 Cleveland Floor Standing Electric Fireplace Black. It is compact and easy to move. It certainly does not take up much space.

But what I do not know yet is if this uses more electricity than normal. I will test it out, But, in the meanwhile, it is wonderful!! Works great, looks better! Rizzo

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program We are thoroughly enjoying this electric fireplace. First of all, it's an attractive piece and appropriate for our bedroom, den and living area. One of the best things about it is its portability we can move it wherever we wish.

Since we live in the Southwest we've yet to experience any real winter this year so have just used it during the cool mornings of late. We cannot wait for real frosty winter to arrive as we have visions of toasty evenings watching TV.

We're pleased that we don't have to heat the entire villa to make us comfortable in one room. What a boon when the bill comes around!

Think the price for it is quite reasonable and for us a Frigidaire product is a good, dependable one.

Honest reviews on Frigidaire DSF-10302 Dallas Floor Standing Electric Fireplace

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This fireplace is a bit small to do anything with. Since it's a 'fireplace,' you want it out in the open to admire it, but it's too small to act like a fireplace. If you end up putting it close to you to act as a space heater, you lose a lot of the ambiance of the fireplace and starts to look really fake. I do like that it has two heat settings -and can put out a respectable amount of heat for its size -but I think I'd opt for one of the bigger, more expensive ones over this one. It's really too small and 'space heater like' to really appreciate as a fireplace.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This floorstanding fireplace is easily moved from location to location. It gives off a pleasant orange glow in addition to the heat coming from the bottom of the unit. The control that operates the fire appearance is a rheostat on the back panel the visual effects cannot be turned off if the unit is turned on. That is, you can't have just the heat without any visual effects; even at the dimmest setting, the effects may be too bright in an otherwise dark room. The heater control can be run at half power as there are two heater switches. Leave one off and you get half the heat at half the power. I found that to be sufficient in most cases.

The only downside of the unit is the noise. The white noise from the fan is considerable in a quiet room. It isn't grating in any way but would require that you turn up your music or watch TV at a higher volume than you might otherwise in the same space. I'd prefer a quieter fan.

In comparing this with other portable heaters that I have, this unit produces the same amount of heat but costs considerably more. You're paying here for the fireplace appearance. If that's what you are looking for, there's no question that visually this product is far more appealing than your run of the mill beige colored heat generating boxes. But if the heat is what you're looking for, and visual effects are secondary, look elsewhere.

One final point of concern is the warning in the product brochure: "This fireplace is intended for supplemental heat and/or decorative purposes. Continuous use for several hours can impact the performance and life of the fireplace." This may be of concern for those who might think to use the product, say, in their home office for 7-8 hours a day during the winter or who put it in their bedroom to keep the room warm at night after they turn down the house thermostat.

This heater works well once its started. It just take an act of congress to get it to start. There needs to be no wind and you need to hold the pilot button for like three minutes before it starts. If you're patient (not me), then this is the heater for you!

The heater seemed to work fine. Takes a little time to get it started the first time, but is not difficult. My biggest complaint is safety. I did not feel safe turning my back on this heater for one second. If you are putting it on flat concrete it should be fine. Most camp sites I have ever been on aren't always the most even of ground and after the 3rd time it tipped over in my tent I decided to just rough it out with the sleeping bag. So if you are on perfectly even ground, go ahead and buy it. Otherwise I would avoid this one.

I bought this product in an attempt to replace a fireplace. The fireplace was worn out and the replacement cost was 10k which I wasn't going to pay. this product appeared to be a decent replacement for the wall and would throw a little heat. But product flaws resulted in a product return.

Pros: The flame looks really good. It has that fire mesmerizing effect. You can stare at it a long time and it keeps your attention. It isn't burning wood but I think it's better looking than gas.

Cons: In my opinion, in order to look good you need to mount it IN the wall at least partially as it is shown in the Yosemite videos on Youtube and that's where the trouble starts. If you mount it ON the wall as the skimpy manual describes, the front just hangs in space 6 inches from the wall and looks kinda weird. I didn't like that look. Maybe it would be ok on a far wall or a recessed wall area but in my room the fireplace is on an exterior wall that also contains the entrance door. I don't want to be able to see the ugly metal box behind the front every time I enter the house.

But mounting it IN the wall appears dangerous to me because the heat is sourced from vents in the bottom. I can't figure out how to mount it in the wall in a safe way to allow the hot air to circulate through the unit. I suppose you could mount it in a sheet rock lined enclosure bigger than the box and mostly covered by the face plate but without any guidance in the manual on this, I'm worried that I would be creating a fire hazard.

The bottom vent is open, the heating element appears to be accessible, and seems that a young child could stick their hand up and burn themselves pretty easily if you mounted it on the wall as required 50cm off the floor.

The controls on the box are on the side which is another problem if you want to attempt a flush mount. The remote worked 50% of the time and I couldn't figure out where the receptor was to get it to work more consistently.

If you are tempted to put it in just for looks and flush mount it, beware, because the controls are on the side you are only going to have the remote to control it, and since you can't disable the heater, you might press the wrong button on the remote and turn on the heater while it is embedded in the wall. There is no visual indication of the heater setting except on the side mounted control so the first indication that you made a mistake might be smoke from your house burning down.

Bottom line(s): Look at the photos that show it mounted on the wall and decide if you can tolerate that look before you buy. Do not be confused by the "insert" Yosemite fireplaces shown in the video. If you have young children I wouldn't purchase this unit due to the bottom vent design.

Nice flames, good modern look, quick shopping and it even has sound. I am very happy with this purchase. The only downside is it must be mounted on the wall not in it because of the location of the buttons. Still looks good.

Installed this heater in a small mudroom I built in our home. Our home has forced hot air and it would not have been easy to get the ductwork into the room for heat so I looked for an alternate heat source and found this nice little heater in my searching. Based on other reviews I read mostly positive reviews and I can only agree with all of them. Fan motor is VERY quiet and the heater heats up super quickly and the blower moves the heat around very nicely. I would recommend this for any small room that needs a heat source or even like a bathroom if you were looking for additional heat to supplement your primary heat source in the cold climates / months (say to take the chill out while taking a shower). Directions were clear pay close attention that THIS product is for a 120V line there is another version for 240V so make sure you are buying the right model. Can be used with an external Thermostat which would allow you to maintain a specific temperature the built in thermostat would have to be manually set using a room thermometer and then you wuold cut back the dial to maintin that temp. Also I do not believe the heater techincally has an 'off' setting the lowest left setting on the dial basically set's the thermostat so cold it doesn't let the heater turn on. A more precise solution would be to install an external thermostat (I found a compatable one for $20 on Amazon) instructions would come with the thermostat to install the thermostat.

This heater appears to be well made and is a good wall install design. I didn't rate it the best of the best only because the thermostat does not have an on-off switch for airconditioned summer use, I had to install it with a separate wall mounted switch with an "on" indicator light. I installed this in our motor home bathroom to knock the chill off after a shower. This heater does not have the typical heater fan noise, it makes no sound at all when running.

Used this heater to replace an older heater that had no fan in one of the bathrooms. It works great. Heats the room up fast and probably more effecient than the old one. Will purchase another for our other bathroom just to upgrade it to a better unit.

Best Dimplex #ETS610W2 Electronic Line Voltage Thermostat Single Pole Deals

Customer Ratings:

We are in the process of upgrading the thermostats for the electric heat in our house. The 20-year-old bimetallic thermostats have minimal utility--basically they seem to operate as on/off switches. Even when a temperature is set, +/10 degree (F) fluctuations are not uncommon. So, we want something a little more accurate as well as something that looks more contemporary. For most of the house, I have Aube or Honeywell digital thermostats. They are perfect--quiet, accurate, and reasonably attractive. I saw the Dimplex thermostat and thought I would try it. In the photos provided, it looks much more attractive than the digital thermostats by other vendors. It's also currently priced more than the digital thermostats--so, its selling point is really aesthetics. A couple points to note, however:

1) Make sure you get the right model. There's precious little description on the Amazon Web page, but there are two models depending on the Wattage requirements.

2) In the photos, it looks like the thermostat flush mounts to the wall. This for me was the real selling point: I can finally have a thermostat that's inconspicuous! As I installed it to my standard wall box, I quickly became convinced that there was no way to have a flush mount. Perhaps if the wall box was recessed into the wall and you could cut away the drywall around it, you might be able to get a flush effect. Instead, it sticks out from the wall (like every other thermostat), except the faceplate protrudes. This just looks silly. I have explored numerous ways to make this look better or to recess more of the unit into the wall, but I am convinced that this is not possible without a custom installation. Perhaps there is an optional decorative plate to go with it?

3) It's really loud when it clicks on or off. Louder than the old thermostats, and certainly lounder than the completely silent digital thermostats made by several vendors. The clicking could be quite distracting if put in a bedroom.

4) The plastic on the housing and especially the dial is very flimsy. The mechanism for turning on the thermostat entails pulling out the nob. The nob felt like it might actually break in the process. Similarly, the plastic is so thin on the faceplate that the LED status indicator actually lights up a good portion of the faceplate when there are no lights on in the room. It feels and looks cheap.

Bottom line: Save your money. At current Amazon pricing, you can buy nearly two nonprogrammable digital thermostats for the same price. I suspect they will ultimately look better and hold up better than this product.

Plus: Works with radiant and fan based heat. Electronic and therefore more accurate than bimetallic thermostats.

Cons: Poor fit to wall. Loud! Cheap materials.

Bi-metallic thermostats are a thing of the past. Our old thermostats wasted energy since they needed +-15 degrees variance to turn on or turn off. These thermostats are great replacements for your old bimetallic sets. They don't ground to the frame like the old ones which seemed weird, but they have nice long leads red and black. I have them running large cadet fan/element heaters in the walls. When the unit turns on, a nice subtle blue LED lights up just above the dial. Pull the dial out and the unit is active. Push the dial in and the unit is inactive. My wife is happy that I installed the Celsius rings instead of F. We set them to 22 degrees as a back up if the fireplace would run out of wood. Every degree clicks into place for exact temperature and I it's accuracy with a room thermometer. It was off only 1 degree. Fits into a standard box, but you will want to insulate the box since the unit will allow you to see into the box through the main panel. They really kick butt! Remember, these are 16a max. I guess that's why they can use only two wires for a single pole. Very nice product. Simple and accurate. Replaced three of them, box to trash, in under 30 minutes with a Phillips head screwdriver. Awesome!

Reviews of Keurig Cafe One-Touch Milk Frother

Customer Ratings:

I am the world's biggest Keurig milk frother fan, so why am I giving it only 3 stars? Because this expensive and addicting accessory only works reliably for about three months. It froths milk for those first few months like nobody's business, perfectly heating your milk with a snowy mountain of froth on the top and then it stops working. I know this through extensive personal experience, because I have (hangs head in shame) actually paid for three of these puppies that's how obsessed I am with them. I returned the first one after a surprisingly contentious phone conversation with a Keurig representative who all but accused me of breaking the item. "You can only use skim milk with it", she admonished me, even though the advertising blurbs for the item say nothing about that. I have dutifully complied with the rules for frothers #2 and #3, but yesterday, when the third one gave up the ghost, predictably, at the 3-month-mark, I decided that my dysfunctional relationship with the Keurig frother has to end. Time to start buying half-and-half again.

The first unit was purchased last Saturday, and Saturday afternoon, I made delicous and abundant froth for my coffee. The next morning, my husband made it, and it only half frothed. Monday, the unit did not work at all; replaced it. Monday afternoon, new unit must not have heated long enough. No work. Replaced it, thinking third time's a charm--Fool that I was. These units are definitely lemons--not charming. The third one shut off this afternoon after around 35 seconds. I think that is the problem, they are shutting off prematurely. What are the chances that my local Bed, Bath & Beyond got stuck with a shipment of lemons with electrical cords and cheap, plastic frothers?

Best Deals on Keurig Cafe One-Touch Milk Frother

Found this item cheaper at a local "Bed, Bath and Beyond" store ($79).

This product works as advertised. It has three parts:

1. The base (which plugs into the wall and provides the electricity)

2. The decanter which contains the electrics that heats the milk. There is a socket under the decanter the plugs into and sits loosely the base.

3. The removeable lid that has a stirrer attached to it.

3. The stirrer, which is a tiny wire whisk that you can remove when you only want to heat the milk.

Its very easy to operate... You put the correct amount of milk into the decanter(There are two fill lines, one for froth, and one for hot milk), place the decanter onto the base and press a button. The wire whisk spins around as the unit heats the milk and you get a nice single serving of froth. Remove the whisk and you can simply heat up the milk. The unit shuts itself off automatically when it is finished properly frothing or heating your milk. There's no guesswork at all.

Not only does this product prevent you from cooling off your coffee with cold milk, it makes your coffee look and taste better too. Funny how simply placing a layer of froth on the top of your coffee makes it look ten times more appealing. We tried it using Mocha, Donut Shop, and Butter Toffee flavors. It worked great in each one of those.

After you're done, it's very easy to clean up. Just rinse the decanter out with water (and dish-soap if you want) and rinse off the whisk and stirrer.

Is it worth $80? We think so because, like the Keurig, there's no guess work. Just pour in the milk and press a button.

Its great for getting creative with your coffee! For instance, we created a layered mocha: Pour the froth on the bottom of the cup, add Chocolate Syrup and then the coffee on top of that.

I just recieved this kettle to replace a rival hotpot. The Rival lacked an on-off switch. It also gave off some strange tastes and some say stainless is better than plastic that way.

I reheat coffee and heat canned goods in the hotpot as it's easier for me than the range and the wide opening on this hotpot allows one to clean it easily though the lid won't lift as far as you'd like.

On recieving this kettle my first thought was the base was of light gauge plastic seemed a little cheap. But I suppose that's ok if it turns out to be durable. Next I was amazed that the stainless vessel was of lighter gauge than I expected. This is probably all good though. Some reviewers of the other stainless kettles remark that they are heavy and get 'dangerously' hot. This one is actually reasonably light to maneuver. And if I boil 2 cups of water turning it off myself which is before the automatic shut off the stainless is just warm at the top; not really hot. If it doesn't wear out this is fine for my needs. Also it looks like the picture. I give it one star for the appearance of the polished stainless, but that is subjective. Have to admit though, it cleans good.

3 year later: Still works fine and I've fired it up every day 3-5 times. V Fine.

I have had this kettle for about a year, and have been very happy with it. However, a couple weeks ago I started having the problem that many other reviewers here have complained about, the on/off switch not staying on. Curious, I opened up the bottom of the kettle, and found the two wires going to the heating element had melted together, causing an intermittent short. I have reported this to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, and I hope that something will be done.

This has all the feature I wanted when I was looking for a electric pot to heat water for coffee. Its stainless steel so no plastic taste. Lid opens wide so its easy to fill and clean. No element inside the pot to interfere with cleaning the inside. It lifts off the base so that you can take it to the table. The large window shows the water level. This is our second one of this model. We had the first one for years until we broke it. The new one has a improved spout so that water pours out without spilling on the counter. I can't imagine someone buying any other model when this one has all the features you need for a heating water for coffee of tea..

I bought this because, let's face it, Alton Brown just rocks. He recommended it "Gear for your Kitchen". I was sick of using my regular stove top teakettle it would collect grease and dirt, requiring scouring on a regular basis. It was Murphy's Law that the kettle would whistle just when I had my hands full or was busy with something else.

This electric hot pot boils water just about as fast (I tested it myself). But it doesn't whistle and shuts itself off when it reaches a boil. AB recommended this one because of the large opening, and true to his claim, you can indeed cool the perfect hard boiled egg 6-7 at a time, actually. I love that it doesn't live on the stove where it collects grease (I've wiped the outside down twice in a year). I love that it's cordless. The only "downside" is that when I make tea, I make 2 qts at a time and the capacity on this is only 1.5 qt, so it could be just slightly larger (Oh and don't try to heat milk based things in it the clean up is horrid I tried to heat up chai in it).

I recently purchased the duraflame heater.It is advertised to heat a room up to 1000sq.ft not so ..........Our room is less than 500 sq.ft and after having this heater turned on for 5 hours there was very little change in room temp.Our home is new construction with r-40 in walls, cieling and subfloor with dual pane windows.I would not recomend this product and I will be returning the unit.

Why do I have to use 20 words to say "great heater" that seems to save $$. This is the start of it's second winter with us and heats the big room downstairs very nicely, thank you; plus the heat carries up the stairwell better than furnace heat.

I live in a 1600 ft. Twin house. While it did not heat the entire house, with a few smaller space heaters I did NOT buy oil this year! My electric bill was about $100.00 more a month but that's a lot better than forking out $500 to $600 at a time. You can preset the thermostat and let it run.....

I do not like to be cold so we set it at 72°. Couldn't be happier with my purchase! Bought one for my son, too!

Honest reviews on Duraflame Dartmouth Portable Heater, 10HM4128-W504

After waiting for another Duraflame model that was on backorder, I decided to substitute with this model. I am in a New York studio apartment & this year the heat was cut back a bit, and because of the excessively cold weather, needed to supplement the heat. This heater works perfectly. Gives a gently warming and comfortable heat without blasting hot air and heats up my 12 X 26 studio really quickly...now no more shivering at night and in the late afternoon when the sun starts to go down. Also, the cabinet is very well made. Gave the wood a coat of furniture polish for protection & I was good to go...very happy with my purchase and think it was a great value...Thanks Amazon, can always count on you for my purchases and always come to you first!!

I have purchased two of these items from Sam's club. Both items had problems with the fan making a loud noise. When I disassembled the units, I noticed the bearings in the fan are very cheap. I will not be buying another.

While it is 3/8's it still might not work with what you are trying to accomplish unless you get an adaptor. Some propane connectors have what is called a flared end (male) and the female receptacle only accommodates a flat end. In this situation you won't be able to connect the two unless you get an adaptor from your local hardware store or propane supplier.

This propane hose worked great with our new fire pit. It was long enough to keep the propane tank out of sight. I would highly recommend it.

I bought the 3-plate warming tray as a present for my Mom earlier this year. I figure it'll come in handy for meals at holidays or family gatherings with many dishes. I've tried it out myself a few times. Here are my thoughts:

* It works as advertised-you plug it for around 8 minutes to heat it up, and the food on it really stays warm for about an hour. (I timed it.)

* This is important: Plates with perfectly flat bottoms work better. More surface area in contact with the warming tray.

* The power cord is very short. If you plan on plugging in the warming tray while it's sitting on your dining table, you may need an extension cord.

* There is no ON/OFF switch. You turn it off by unplugging it. So you can't just leave the tray plugged in all the time on a counter somewhere.

* Presentation-wise, the warming tray looks nice. Not too cheap-looking. No problems with leaving it on the dining table when your guests come.

* When it says "3-plate", it means 3 individual-sized plates. With larger serving plates, you might manage only 2 plates. Knowing this, if I were to buy this tray again, I would probably get the 4-plate version.

The cordless warming tray lived up to my expectations. I am enjoying not having to cover the prepared plates to keep them warm. The tray is attractive on the table, not too wide and cumbersome. The sides are contoured for easy moving around; however, it is a little tight for three dinner plates.

This hot tray has the advantage over the old Saltons of having nice contemporary styling and not needing to be plugged in after it has heated, which means you can put it on a table or buffet with no nearby outlet. The large size has pluses and minuses: you can fit several dishes on it, but it's hard to find a place to store it as it won't fit in standard cabinets. It's also high off the table--a bit bulky in that regard. The surface is gleaming stainless steel, not glass like the old ones, but this apparently scratches, so be very careful placing dishes on it. Also a bit pricey--you can find used Saltons online for a fraction of the price.

Honest reviews on Cordless Warming Tray

I bought this to use on Shabbat, the Jewish Sabbath when cooking is not permitted. I am using the tray as an electric blech (I also have it on a timer to conserve electricity), and it works GREAT! I took hot food out of the oven Friday before candles, placed it on the warming tray, and covered it with kitchen towels. The food was still piping hot when we ate 2+ hours later. Even better, the tray warmed refrigerator cold food to pleasantly warm-enough-to-eat on Saturday. I placed the dishes on the tray at about 8am, and the food was warm for lunch by about 12 or 1. My approach to halacha may be different from the norms in your community, so please take this just as "been there done that" advice, and consult your rabbi re: halacha. I can't comment on the product's durability, etc, since I've only had it a few weeks, but I am thrilled with how it works so far. It fits 3 9x11 pans easily.

I already had this exact same warmer which I originally bought a few years back at Bed, Bath & Beyond. This largest version, the TWT-40, 1000 watt, is awesome. I have used it at Thanksgiving, and for extra-large lasagna pans catered in, hot dips at parties, etc. You can leave it plugged in and the food will actually sizzle. If you heat it up 10-15 minutes and use it cordless style, it will keep your food HOT for an hour plus. They are very well constructed, compact & nice looking. I ordered 2 more on amazon, and they are perfect. I have borrowed my sister-in-laws expensive chafing warmers--heavy duty stainless steel. They are beautiful and work great, BUT if you have to use several of them, they require cleaning, and they are heavy and tricky to manipulate in the sink. No fun when you're tired at the end of a long night of entertaining. No need for that with these cordless warming trays; all you do is wipe them down. That's what convinced me to buy these instead. I'm very satisfied and highly recommend!

Great timer I have a 97 Ford F250 power stroke diesel, only have block heater on two hours in the morning just like it was plugged up all night.

I bought this at a local store last Fall and it has repeatedly failed on me. The reason is because there is no battery backup to save the programming in case of a power interruption even if there is a "blip" from your electric company and the power doesn't go out, this device resets everything deleting the settings you put in, and doesn't work unless you reprogram it. There's no feeling like going outside on a sub-zero morning and finding that your block heater was never on.

Also don't plan on programming this in the house then going outside to re-plug it in if you buy it, as the settings are instantly lost and you will have to monkey around with programming it outside in the cold weather.

Notice the product features and description listed here on amazon: ''Settings are reset when unplugged'' and ''Settings erased if power is interrupted.'' I wasn't aware of that when I bought it at the store and wish I could return it. I previously had a Whirlpool timer that lasted over a decade, had an AA battery backup for the programming in case of a power failure and was always reliable until last Fall. It's not made anymore and I'm on amazon now looking for something else to use next year and thought I'd warn other customers about this timer, which is another piece of junk made in China with an American brand name.
